I hope with my experience in boarding, daycare and in-home settings, I can be the right fit for you and your furry friends ❤️☀️ My schedule is wide open and flexible! I am willing to do overnights for up to 2 weeks, drop-ins could be upwards of a month if needed. Up to 3 walks a day. Let’s talk and we can work it out! You can expect your home to look the same as when you left - no accidents, destruction, crying or stress. Let your vacation be just that 🌴🍹

“I was able to enjoy my international trip without worry because Caroline did such a good job with my cat. She went the extra mile to come meet him in person to make sure he would be comfy with her before I left, and she also did a lot to accommodate my last minute schedule changes, which I couldn’t be more thankful for. If you’re looking for an experienced sitter that truly loves animals and also being as helpful and kind as she can, I can’t recommend Caroline enough!”

“Rico is terrific with our two Irish Red & White Setters. He is attentive, caring, reliable and trustworthy. Rico is quickly becoming part of our ohana. We'd be lost without him!”

About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 40 years and currently share my home with three cats. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, fish, and small pets, including senior pets and those with medications or special routines. I’m calm, dependable, detail-oriented, and believe every pet deserves care tailored to their individual personality and needs. I work from home with a flexible schedule, allowing me to offer dependable morning, afternoon, and evening visits throughout the week. I do my best to accommodate your pet’s normal routine whenever possible. I treat every home with respect and carefully follow your pet’s routine, including feeding, medications, walks, litter boxes, and any special instructions. I’ll keep your home secure, clean up after your pet, and send regular photo updates so you know they’re happy and well cared for.

About: Hi there! My name has since changed to *Romeo* as I am queer :) Ive had experience with all sorts of animals since I was a young! My heart however has always lied with dogs. Ive lived with, trained, and taken care of dogs from age 15. Professionally, I am currently a counselor at Camp Bow Wow! I’ve been working there for over a year now, learning and applying a wide range of skills. In this role I’ve learned some key skills on how to ensure companions are safe and happy: 1. Body language: I observe everything from your dog’s head to tail to minimize reactivity due to human- animal misunderstandings 2. Health indicators: although I’m not a vet, I was trained to recognize irregular symptoms a dog may be displaying such as stool texture and consistency, body temperature, excessive panting and drooling, gum color, etc. Anything your dog may be struggling with from itchy skin to something greater, I’ll notify you right away! 3. Communication: parents love hearing about their babies and seeing them happy and comfortable! By regular communication, this allows me to get clear instructions to follow, assess any changes needed in care or routine, and stay up to date in case of any rapid changes or emergencies. In addition, what sets me apart is my artistic attention to detail, which allows me to adapt to your dogs needs in a creative way. I like to challenge myself by finding ways to stimulate and enrich your dog while you are away! I’m very relaxed, quiet, and easygoing, but also spontaneous and go-with-the-flow should your dog get the zoomies! I’ll get mine out with him :) Lastly, I respect peoples spaces/ privacy and always clean up behind myself after using something in your space. I'd love to give your dog my unconditional love and undivided attention. Your baby is not just a pet, they are our best friends who depend on us. So Relax while you’re away, and leave the fun stuff to me! Looking for regular/ recurring clients :) I currently work part time on weekdays, twice a day for up to 7 hours. This is subject to change within the next few weeks to ensure I have time to House sit efficiently. Please reach out to me with questions about this, and I’d be happy to negotiate! I love being outside, especially in the company of some furry friends. I understand that your dog may either be a nature pet or a couch potato, and I'm able to adapt to your pets needs depending on their personality. I'm clean, quiet, and active when need be. Cleanliness is a priority for me. Cleaning up waste properly and right away is a must, including picking up poop during walks.

“Madeline was awesome! She was communicative, sent wonderful photos, and did a great job! We were able to rest easy knowing our cat was in great hands while we’re away! Thanks, Madeline!”

“Heather has been so helpful checking up on our pups while we’re at work! It’s clear they are super comfortable with her and she always sends cute photos of their time together!”

About: I've been a foster and pet sitter for mostly greyhounds for the past 20 years, and have always had dogs of my own. I've gone through obedience classes and grooming, and am pretty good with most temperaments. I am very available and flexible, since I'm retired. I can come by during the day, including weekends and holidays, whatever works for you and your pet. Please note that I accept in-home stays that are a minimum of two nights. I can come to your home and stay, or visit to let your dog out, walk, or feed. Safety is a big factor and I'll do my best!

“Stacie was amazing with our pets. Our dogs can be particular and overly anxious, but they were always excited to see her. She asked questions about our animals that I hadn’t thought of and really wanted to make sure they were well taken care of. She always kept us updated and sent us lots of pictures. I would absolutely book Stacie again in the future. She is wonderful.”

“Baela did a great job taking care of my two cats! One of them is a little bit difficult and needed medication, and she took care of it no problem. My cats were happy when I got home, and everything was in order. Baela communicated very well before and during my trip. I would definitely recommend Baela and would use her again next time I go out of town.”

Becky N.

“Karibian was very prompt and ensured Zeek was taken care of. She communicated well during each visit and went above and beyond in helping address a troubling “ant issue”. I would highly recommend her any service she provides on Rover!”

“Paige is the best!! Our dog loves to see her come through the door for some playtime and a walk. She communicates great and is very easy to reach!”

About: ❤️dogs! Had them since child, first one was Shepard mix, couple of pitbull terriers, my new buddy is a 2 yr old doberman named todoroki, we go on long walks all the time I currently work on the door dash app so my schedule is free during the day from about 7 am to about 4pm I usually deliver at night Lots of walks, I can take your puppy on the walk he desperately needs while your working never worry if your baby had an accident again

“Alyssa was great for Marm. She took pictures to assure us all was well. It gave us great peace of mind to know he was being cared for!”

“Charlie continues to love his visits with Cassidy, this was the 3rd time that we booked with her and it was no different. The communication is great and the going above and beyond every time and just knowing that Charlie is in good hands is very assuring.”

About: I have had Bruno since he was 4 months old, the first year was in and out of vets, I finally figured out he had pretty bad allergies since started allergies pills and making his food from scratch he is living his best life. My girlfriend is a traveling ot, so I have a free schedule while we are here in mountain home, besides taking care of our animals my schedule is mostly free with open availability and can do multiple visits in a day Because of us renting we can not house animals in our home, I can house/ pet sit or do multiple visits in a day anytime.

About: I've helped care for dogs and cats of friends when they are out of town, including walking, feeding, and cleaning up after them (including puppies, which frequently had to be cleaned up after, which I have no problem with). I am capable of handling anything that comes my way and am not easily stressed. Animal care and owner communication are my first priorities. I will do whatever you need to care for your pets, such as letting them outside in a fenced yard or putting them in a crate at the end of the visit. As I work full time, my schedule typically is weekends. However, I can do early morning walks before 8 am or after 6 pm during weekdays. Pets will be monitored closely. I stick to instructions and will ask questions if I have them. Animals will be treated with patience and respect. If house-sitting, I always put things back in their proper place and avoid touching anything that isn't required for pet care. I myself don't enjoy when folks move my things around, so I keep my hands off!

“Grace did an amazing job! This was my first experience using Rover and I was pretty apprehensive. I knew right from our meet and greet that she was a good fit. She was very friendly and immediately bent down to pet and talk to my dog. He loved the attention! Grace sent comprehensive texts and pictures with each of her visits to keep me informed and that alleviated all my fears. My fur baby was clearly in excellent hands. If I need a sitter again, Grace will be the first one I reach out too.”
